Default 11:5 to 1 to 13:5 to 1 compression? Torque

You realize that running a 50/50 mix will cost you far more than the difference between the two pistons if money is the determining factor. If you burn 5 gal per weekend and go twice per month, that will be an additional $210 per year to run the 50/50 mix. How much difference in price was there in the pistons after you factor in the added cost of the thicker gasket?

Also, if you are just ordering a 13:1 piston off the internet, find someone who can calculate actual compression. Usually the call out compression is far from accurate. You may already have 12:1 without the thicker base gasket.......

I know you think I am a pain in the a$$, but I want people to get what they are after and not make some of the mistakes I have made that cost me big money or even worse, gave me disappointng results. If you don't think I have anything that can benefit you, you have the right to ignore my questions and counsel.
